You are applying for work at an independently owned and operated franchise of Taco John’s International. If hired, the franchisee will be your only employer. Franchisees are independent business owners who set their own wages and benefit programs, which will vary from location to location.
Taco John’s Team Members are expected to deliver the Taco John’s Vison and Mission to customers each and every day. They are also expected to fulfill the Taco John’s Core Values.
Our Core Values are:
People Development, Teamwork, Make a Difference, Have Fun, and Win
As a Team Member, you will work a variety of job stations in the restaurant. You will work the front counter or drive-thru, taking customer orders, handling cash and/or handing out orders; in the dining area, ensuring customer satisfaction. You may work in the food production areas of the restaurant, such as the steamtable, prep area or fry station. These responsibilities require employees to follow directions for equipment and/or recipe and menu item preparation. Taco John’s employees must know product abbreviations and portions.
Cleanliness of the restaurant is extremely important and it’s a team effort, so you will also perform cleaning duties. The Restaurant Manager may assign other duties.
Starting as a small taco stand in Cheyenne, Wyoming, in 1968, our one-of-a-kind tacos and other bold flavors were an instant hit. Two local businessmen wanted to share these unique flavors with the world, so they purchased the franchise rights in 1969 and named the restaurant after the man who started it all: John.
Ever since that very first taco stand, Taco John’s has been all about bringing the flavor. From handmade salsas and classic Crispy Tacos with freshly-made shells to our signature Potato Olés®.
From there, Taco John’s restaurants began popping up across the Midwest, evolving to include drive-thrus and interior seating to bring you the unique flavors that made Taco John’s famous. Our menu evolved to include bold originals like Potato Olés, Meat and Potato Burritos, and our holiday specialty: Nachos Navidad®.
Ever hear of Taco Tuesday? We started it! We even trademarked it. That’s how seriously we take tacos.
Today, Taco John’s operates and franchises 350 restaurants in 22 states – making it one of the largest Mexican quick-service restaurant brands in America.
We continue to grow across the country – but some things never change. Like our uncompromising standards of food quality, dedication to using real ingredients, signature bold flavors, and our commitment to Olé The Day!
